As third-placed Liverpool prepare to travel to the Emirates to take on Premier
League leaders Arsenal, Brendan Rodgers heaps praise on star striker Luis
Suarez

Liverpool have been in fine goal-scoring form this season, Daniel Sturridge has scored ten, eight of which have come in the league, while Luis Suarez has netted six times, including a hat-trick in Liverpool's 4-1 home win over West Brom last Saturday.

Rodgers has been impressed with Suarez - who agitated for a move to the Gunners in the summer - so far this season.

"You know everyone talks about his goals and his work-rate but I've seen an improvement in his footballing ability and his maturity this year. So that really bodes well for us," the Liverpool boss said.

Rodgers said that Liverpool were "fighting to be in the race" with the likes of Arsenal, Manchester City and Chelsea this season, but didn't want to be drawn on whether his side were title contenders.

"We won't get carried away, we have to keep our concentration and continue to work very hard every day on the training field and that has brought success over a period of not just this early part of the season, since the turn of the year really." Rodgers said.
